Every December, experts
in the breast cancer field from around the world
gather at the San Antonio
Breast Cancer Symposium to present the latest
data on treatments and diagnostic tools and to
discuss
their impact on patient management. From conventional
chemotherapy to targeted agents and supportive
care measures to genomic technologies, as well
as
advances in surgical and imaging techniques,
the scientific
findings reported at this annual symposium have
an immediate impact on clinical practice and
help to focus the direction of future breast
cancer
research.
